What to do

by sarah   Nov 2, 2005


I turned when you faced me
kept my eyes low
if i avoided you
you\'d avoid me
but i was wrong, i just didn\'t know
you were more persistant that that
you asked me my name
and i told you in a hurry
sarah is my name
it\'s nice to meet you
have a nice day
you asked me why
i was trying so hard
to get you away from me
but i just looked at you and said i\'m sorry
i didn\'t mean to rush you
i didn\'t want to be rude
i just want you to know i lost my focus as soon as i laid eyes on you

immediate attraction
made me forget what to do
flustered and embarrassed i tried to be calm
but there wasn\'t a chance for the calm before the storm
i wanted to tell him right then and there
i thought he was beautiful
to tell him or not
i was evenly torn
i let him go
and he walked on by
glanced back again
and we caught each others eye
for a moment in time
i felt something real
i\'ve never had a pull to someone like i did to him
but it just went by like a breath taking view
a few years ago now
and i still wish i had known what to do.
